Jerry W.I truly understand what you are saying and thank you very much for the argument against my idea of a niche for rentals. my arguments is: 95% of sex offenders will not brake a law again, 85% of sex offenders that did have physical contact knew there victim either direct family member, relative, friend, etc... so 15% was stranger via. a park, beach, internet, etc... those are the statistics that i read and can prove just like the low recidivism rate that i already proven. also not all sex offenders are pedophiles (attraction to pre pubescent children).As I said i would screen the tenant. if someone finished there sentence 5 - 10 years ago and have not committed another crime, I truly think that person would make for a great long term tenant as I'm sure it is very hard for them to find a place to rent.Sure there are pro's and con's to this but using this niche market to rent to i should be able to obtain the top or close to it of the avg. rent in the area.
